ActiveSync changing calendar time on pocket PC

Just purchased Dell Axim3 and started using ActiveSync.
When calendar syncs entries from desktop (also dell with
Win XP)to pocket PC all calendar entries are 1 hour off
(eg. 11PM instead of 10PM). When sync goes from pocket PC
to desktop the calendar entries add with the correct time.
Both desktop and pocket pc are correctly set to same time
zone (GMT -6 Central US). How do I correct?

I am having the exact same problem and came hear looking
for help.

Anyone?

1. The time zone on both the PocketPC and the desktop are the same. Be careful with the PocketPC
time zone setting. Some time zones are the same offset from GMT but do not observe Daylight Saving
Time (DST). An example of this is Arizona in the US which is in the US Mountain time zone (GMT-7
Mountain US) but has its own time zone (GMT-7 Arizona) simply because Arizona does not observe DST.

2. Make sure the desktop time is configured to account for Daylight Saving Time (DST).

3. On the desktop make sure Outlook is configured correctly for the local time zone. If your running
Outlook 2002 then make sure you install SP2 to correct a problem with DST...

Thankyou! That was the problem. The Axim was configured
for DST but the PC was not.
